This is pretty embarrassing. Y’all have some really thin skin or haven’t played very many other competitive games if you find the DB community or its online experience problematic. The game itself doesn’t inherently cause people to act like ‘x’ in the first place. Of course, queue the comments and finger pointing about ‘lack of this’ or developers ‘not doing that’ as the primary reasons for their tantrums and toxicity. Whiners like to whine. Keep doing your thing, SD. Some changes have been crap, some have been great, but the recent involvement with the boards and amount of work that’s going into the game is promising.

I 5000% agree with you. And I’m upset almost every other match and I rated it maybe a 3-4? Can’t remember but it was pretty freaking low, this game’s toxicity is TAME.

When I answered the poll I was only thinking of verbal toxicity (in chat, rather) but do people think of other forms too? Like abusing vote kicks, “not trying,” tapping out if you think that’s in bad taste.

I had to answer that kind of question in the poll’s thread, and I said that it was up to the user to decide. So it could be anything.
